[QUOTE="mod 700, post: 1908614, member: 82185"] Like a lot of you, I always got a compass, or 2, some years back, had a bad read on my GPS almost got me mauled. I was in a new area, with tall timber, no visible land marks, marked the truck with the GPS, and off I go bow hunting. Made a big loop, taking a look at my compass as I went, keeping a idea of where the truck was. I came up on a old 2 track on the way back, my gut said truck was to the south, GPS said north, so I go north. As I slipped along the road, I kicked up 2 cubs off to my left, I start backing out, and here comes the sow from upwind, full charge, she turned at about 12-15 feet, to this day the most adrenaline charged moment of my life. The truck was to the south. Mike [/QUOTE]
